Taking it Easy

I like it when we can take it easy.... It's a nice day outside... I got to hang out with Misty and Tiff today... I walked to get the kids from school.... nice and easy.

Of course, I have neglected a few things today like we forgot Hannah had Band this morning, I haven't done the dishes, we are out of milk..... but who's asking, right.

I finished up Cynthia's little quilt. Hurray for me! It has minky on the back which is the softest stuff in the world. I made a cute little elephant out of the minky to go with it too. So, is it too boy or is it gender neutral enough? On to the next project!

So, since I have been negligent as far as Hannah updates go... I thought I'd brag a little. She gets spelling words every week and she has to make up sentences that the words go in. She thinks it's fun to use as many words as she can in one sentence. Actually these are the challenge words. She takes the spelling test at the beginning of the week and if she (or any other student) gets them right then they only have to use the challenge words.

Her words were:

permissibleflabbergastedcommasbundledchugged

Her sentence was:

It is permissible to be flabbergasted that you forgot to put commas on a bundled package that was chugged away on a train!

I think she is a smart little girl to come up with sentences like these.

Holy cow! She is a smart lil booger isn't she? :) The quilt looks great - I would say it's definitely a little more on the side of masculine but could be gender neutral. I love the elephant and didn't know you possessed such talents as to make a stuffed animal! :)

Quite the sentence indeed! LOVE the quilt and the elephant too! That is cool you can do stuffed animals. I am getting a sewing machine for "mothers day" (in June). We will see where that takes me but I might be asking you for advice. I also read your comment on Amy's blog and we wish you were here to do cool stuff with us all of the time to.
